NOTICE: This map was built in 1.3.5 using TEdit to force the game to work a certain way. While this works in vanilla Terraria in 1.3.5, it does NOT work in 1.4. As such, this adventure map will only work in version 1.3.5. These techniques are so heavily encorporated into the map's design, that updating the adventure to 1.4 would mean scrapping the world and completely starting over. Time better spent on making a new adventure, so that likely won't happen. I'll leave this map up on Curseforge, as we can set Terraria to play 1.3.5 still. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Harbinger is a SciFi themed adventure map set on a Lunar base under attack by aliens, and a computer virus. Your ship is ambushed, and you're forced to abandon it. After crash-landing on the moon's surface, work your way through the desolate base in an attempt to contact Earth and warn them of the pending attack. You will need to solve puzzles, fight waves of enemies, and parkour your way to victory.
Keep an eye out for secret areas! There are also achievements you can unlock throughout your journey. Both will help boost your score at the very end!
WARNING: This map is intended to be a challenge. As such, some of the parkour and puzzles can be quite challenging.
Average Tester Playtime: Approximately 5 hours
This map is dedicated to the memory of my friend Jestex. He mentioned wanting to see me make an adventure map many times. I built this in honor of his request, though sadly he never got to see it.
Map Rules:
Single player map
Start with a new softcore character (mediumcore/hardcore will break the map)
Delete all starting items
No placing or destroying blocks (Breaking down doors can ruin respawn progression!!!)
Do not use any items dropped from enemies or explosions, except keys
DO use keys!
Khaios' Recommendations:
Don't use map/minimap (it breaks immersion)
Use "color" lighting mode (the other modes are very dark, and make the map harder than intended)
Use autopause to assist with reading text popups
If you experience fps drops during intense moments, try changing your in-game frame skip to subtle or off
How to Install:
All you need to do is open the zipped folder, drag and drop (or copy/paste) the Harbinger v1.18.1wld file into "C:Users*YOURUSERNAME*DocumentsMy GamesTerrariaWorlds". When you launch the game, you will see Harbinger on your world list.
No mods required!
Report bugs in the comments here, and I'll address them when I can. Have fun, and good luck ^.^
==========CHANGELOG: Harbinger v1.10==========
Added "Easy Mode" - This mode is intended for players less interested in a challenge, and more interested in just seeing the map. Opting into easy mode, which is accessible at the start of the map, will give the player access to a chest containing health increase and survive-ability accessories. In exchange, however, the scoreboard and playtime clock at the end of the map will be disabled, and none of the secret endings will be accessible.
Tweaked First Portal Chamber to account for "Easy Mode."
Tweaked Portal Chamber 9 to account for "Easy Mode."
Added a message to first lunar parkour area with a hint on how to proceed.
Added a message to the final core room with a hint on how to proceed.
